About

We create artisan gourmet empanada. We use real, local, ingredients for the best taste. We utilize classic and traditional cooking techniques. Our unique, thin, dough is great tasting and takes only minutes to bake or fry. We prepare each empanada by hand and freeze them to lock in the flavor and freshness. This takes more time but we wouldn't have it any other way.

Amazing Empanadas in East York! This cozy spot is a must-visit for empanada lovers. The crusts are perfectly flaky, and the fillings are packed with flavor, from classic beef and chicken to creative vegetarian and fusion options. The sauces are fresh and complement the empanadas beautifully. The service is warm and friendly, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or a casual meal, this place is a true East York gem!

Food tasted awful. The guac was for sure old. The pita was fully burnt. The empanadas were very greasy and tasted bad. Would not recommend.

Stopped by and ordered a box of 6 empanadas. Two chicken, two beef, steak & provolone, and chorizo. Location is easy to find, ample parking out front, and very good visual street presence. Service was very good. The staff are friendly, and very personable. The empanadas took a few minutes, but they arrived fresh and piping hot. The presentation is extremely impressive. Very professional. They are packaged as if it's a gift. Not a bad idea to bring a box if you are visiting someone. Taste: without the smoky aioli or chimmichurri, the flavor is mild. Quality seems good. Value: a bit pricey for a weekly revisit. But worth it for a special once in a while treat.

House of Empanadas is an absolute gem! The taste of their empanadas is truly amazing, so fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The quality of the ingredients really stands out, and they offer a wide variety of empanadas to suit every palate, both salty and sweet. I personally adore the beef empanadas; they are absolutely delightful, and I could easily enjoy them every day. The staff and the owner are incredibly friendly and attentive, making every visit a pleasure. These empanadas are perfect for hosting events at your home; my guests always love them and often choose to enjoy the empanadas before trying anything else. It's always a joy to see the delight on their faces when they taste one for the first time. I also love buying their frozen empanadas to keep on hand at home. Whenever I have a craving, I simply bake or air-fry them, and they come out perfect every time. In addition to their amazing empanadas, they offer a few other products that I can't get enough of, their Chimichurri and Bruschetta sauces are fantastic, not just on empanadas but on a variety of meals. And their Dulce de Leche is the perfect sweet ending to any satisfying meal. Trust me, give them a try, they're totally worth it!

Everything about this place is absolutely stellar. Their empanadas, the presentation, the service... All stellar! Absolutely excellent 👏 👌 👍! If you're craving comfort food, this is the place to check out. BTW, be prepared to wait 15 minutes for the empanadas to bake... Yes, they are made fresh at the facility and baked on order...

I ordered a box of 12 empanadas of various flavours and they were all delicious. My faves so far are the chicken and the pepperoni. Love the box presentation and really appreciate that each flavour is well labeled. Will definitely be back to try the other flavours!

I knew about this place for a long time and wanted to try it as well. After droning some scenes, I took a bike ride to this colourful establishment. I was welcomed by the friendly owner himself at the take out window. I glanced at the posted menu outside and decided on 2 items:the chicken and the beef empanadas. I also got smoky aioli and chimichurri dipping sauces. They were freshly baked to order and delivered a short time later. Took them home in a pretty box on my bike and as seen in the photo, the pastry was nicely flaky and I shared them with my Latino roommate. We both enjoyed them and will go back to order some more and try new items. I could not resist and took some drone shots as well.

Just had these. Theyre amazing in quality and taste. The pastry shell itself is fantastic and perfectly baked and flakey. Top notch! But portion size and price is way to expensive to go more than once in a blue moon. Its $6 per empanada if you get 6 and 4.50 if you get 12. Have to get 12 next time for best value. As good as they are the price it cost to filll yourself up. 35 for 6. Or heavy on the wallet 12 for 50 for 1 person is a bit much considering what 35-50 gets you around in the GTA. A bit out of my budget and tax bracket perhaps. Lots of great fresh made from scratch food with high quality ingredients that will feed you all day for that price. Would be nice if they were a bit bigger with more stuffing at the current prices or some sort of cheap filler sides that come with a box of 6 at that price like a salad or some chips or fries or 1 dessert empanada as a bonus with every 6 that you get with a free sweet sauce..for the price Id expect them to use all organic ingredients and an expensive high quality olive oil or avocado oil, homemade from scratch mayo or organic mayo. Will go back and try it again. The price and portion sizes for the cost for 1 individual are why its not 5 stars to me. Just too many better high quality high protein filling fresh options out there for $35-50 a person for me to choose from. If youre in a group of 2 the portion and price it cost per person works alot better for a box of 12 if you get 3-4 free sauces with it instead of 2 (box of 6 gets 2 free) box of 12 still only get 2. It should have 3 or 4 to better mix and match dessert flavors and savory flavors for better value.

My partner is from Argentina and we have been searching high and low for really good Argentinian style Empanadas. Tucked away in a little kitchen we found House of Empanadas and they truly hit the spot. Finding out that the owner (and head chef?) are Argentinian came as no surprise and we ate all 6 of our empanadas before they even had time to cool. I tried the beef, chorizo and cheese, and the guava and cheese options. The guava and cheese was delicious and a perfect desert. The chorizo and cheese was packed with flavor, but the beef was perfectly seasoned and exactly what I had hoped for. My vegan partner had the spinach, the better meat and the corn options. She really enjoyed the spinach and the corn is probably the best corn one we ve tasted in the city. However, the better meat was so good! Possibly even better than the normal beef All the empanadas were made to order, came with 2 sauces, and were cooked perfectly with a nice flaky pastry. These are so good we are heavily considering ordering them to add to our wedding hors doeuvres menu!

If they keep doing what they are doing - they will be rich. Its a food all on its own but if you enjoy pastries and have ever enjoyed a Jamaican patty - thats basically the consistency but better. It stands on its own. As long as these folks stick with their current model - they will be huge. I ordered a 12 pack to share with friends - ended up sampling a bit of each flavour - incredible. The sweet potato actually tasted better than a donut which I was not expecting. In addition to this - the meal style empanadas were top notch and unique - no bland flavours. The attention to detail in the box immediately answered my first question which was - how will I know which is which? See below. Vegetarian options: Some of the options are vegan.

If you havent had House of Empanadas, put down the review, hit directions, and go now to get your Empanadas. Now is the time, and you need to go now. This place has mastered Empanadas, and they are beautiful. The flakey crust, deep flavourful fillings, and side sauces are delicious. The crust is flakey, baked to perfection, toasty on the outside and soft, moist, and just the right thinness on the inside. These Empanada fillings are packed. And you get the right mix of filling and crust in each bite. My personal favorite was the Chorizo and Cheese, followed by Spinach and then Steak & Provolone of the 3 I tried...so far. This caused a big argument between my friend and I, as his favorite is the Steak & Provolone, but to each their own. Blink and youll miss it, so dont blink because this is a walk up that doesnt have seating inside. They make your Empanadas fresh to order in 20 minutes. Be patient, take a moment, and just wait. Itll be worth it. My only disappointment is that I didnt grab some bags for home baking. Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian Empanadas like Spinach. Im sure they have others.

We ordered a 6 mix and match box of empanadas and cheese bread bites. Empanada flavors were: chicken, chorizo and cheese, steak and provolone, spinach, and ham and cheese. I was most looking forward to the spinach, but it was surprisingly sweet. I really liked the chorizo and steak. Chimichurri sauce was delicious. The cheese bites were my least favorite. It was like a very dry biscuit. Neither of us could finish it. I would order the empanadas again.

Was passing by, decided to stop for empanadas, as a conocedor of these precious food (grew up eating them) I find these ok, tasty but not exactly empanadas, I tried the chicken version. Now, they wont sell single, is either 6 or 12, size is small, texture is flaky, these r oven baked btw so not soo much greasy look or feel, the shell racks really easy n thats great if u have soft teeth, inside the filling is paste with chicken flavor, normally empanadas have a piece of chicken meat deboned. These r more as a snack replacement unlike the ones back home that replace lunch or breakfast.

The food quality is great. The presentation is excellent. I dont know enough about this style of food to say if it is authentic taste. But the price is just too high for me. Cookies...Delicious, definitely. But for $4? The empanadas...flakey, enough filling that tasted good. But 6 for $30? $5 for each pastry? Maybe that is the normal price for one, I dont know. This my first time ordering from here. It seems to me that your paying for the excellent packaging.

Excellent empanadas, they have many flavors to choose from, the ones I liked the most so far are the onion and cheese ones; You must pre-order by phone and they make boxes with 6 or 12 empanadas, they take about 20-25 minutes to be ready. Taste delicious, they make many flavors but my favorite untill now is onion with cheese. You must order on phone before pick up, it takes around 20-25 minutes to be ready. They sell boxes with 6 or 12 empanadas and could add mayo, chimichurri sauce sides.

This was my first time trying empanadas, so I didnt know exactly what to expect. I ordered ubereats and I got excited by their packaging itself. I ordered 6 mix empanadas ,cheese bread and sauce. Taste wise it was good. I like chicken and beef but guava and cheese you might only like if you are into sweet things. but I think the price is on the expensive. $9 for 6 small PC bread and $2 for the 1 small sauce which seemed like should have been part of the empanadas box.

One word: DELICIOUS!! I was feeling lazy so decided to try a new restaurant. House of Empanadas menu caught my eye on Uber eats. Figured Id try em out. Bought a box of 12, selecting every filling option. Not cooking dinner that day was the best decision I couldve made lol. The box the food came in had a ribbon on it and once opened they carefully labeled the different Empanadas. Prices are very reasonable considering the quality of the food and the portions. Now I need to visit in person when the food is fresh out the kitchen!!! Great restaurant, glad I took the chance.

We got chorizo/cheese, chicken, apple, beef, cheese/onion and ham/cheese. There were other options as well and each one tasted better than the previous one! Yes, they are a bit pricey but well presented with two complimentary dips/sauces and it feels great to support a local business. I ll definitely be back.

UBER EATS DELIVERY REVIEW: Presentation was amazing, got the 6 piece sampler and felt like I was opening and getting a gift. Overall, everything tasted amazing although heavy on the onion which my girlfriend didn t love but I say, you can never have too much. Highly recommend if not just for the crispy flaky crust.

Tried a couple of their empanadas at the coxwell market and I was intrigued. A few days later I placed a mixed order for a dozen. Wow! Everything about these lil beauties... Is delicious? Are delicious? Whatever. Highly edible! The crust is so light and flaky, you could put anything in there and it would taste good. The fillings were all packed with flavour and a perfect portion to size ratio. Oh and dont forget about the sauce, the chimichuri pairs great with any of the savory flavours. Ill be back for sure!

Went here on a whim to get some food to go with the beer from Muddy York (highly recommend!). I got 3 chicken and 3 beef. Both were excellent, but the chicken was exceptional. The pastry is light and buttery, and the chicken was well spiced with a nice assortment of peppers and other veg.

This is the first time I ordered at this place and I m so happy I found it. It brings me a piece of Argentina.

Sad to hear that you have reduced your radius of delivery. We just live 6.5km from your store. Did a delivery last week and no problem. Trying to do a new delivery today and I can t. Sad. Well, UberEats app didn t want to deliver to our location because it showed there was a change in radius. You should check with them. DoorDash app doesn t work very well. Tried to select a dozen and pick the ones I wanted, but it forces you to select at least one of each. That s why I ended up selecting a dozen of Nutella and wrote a note asking for only 10 and 2 cheese ones. Thanks for noticing. The Nutella are delicious.

Empanadas are so fluffy and their takeout/delivery is truly a gourmet experience. I got a mixed batch and favourites were blue cheese, steak, chicken, and spinach. I also tried the bacon/cheese/prunes and wasnt a fan. The prunes were surprisingly good but the baked bacon didnt work for me. The chorizo/cheese was ok but not as good as the other options. I would have loved it even more if there was more of a tangy/vinegar/tart sauce to cut through the fattiness of the butter (and needless to say, this is not a place to count calories).

If you live in the delivery area, you have to order some of these! We have ordered several times already and, every single time, we have enjoyed it. They have a short list of flavours (around 6) but, there is definitely something delicious for everyone. The empanadas are not too big, however they pack a lot of taste and can quickly fill you up. By the way, the price might seem a little expensive at first but, these are a treat and you will probably pay as much (and more) at a restaurant.
